Assuming he is not a complete idiot, I expect someone told him that they had 'heard' that and he was so keen to grasp at any straw that he didn't think to check it was true before going to press.  (Assuming it is in fact untrue.) 

(Actually maybe that is the deinition of a complete idiot....)

How can people want to be the hanging judge on hits in an aggressive physical contact game and at the same time as a nation we condone mentally training our young men to be paid Killers for the armed forces or lately our police forces.?

 

And then these armed forces folk when they get home are de-arranged ticking time-bombs, in the right circumstances.

We talk about terrorists coming back here as dangerous, yet we train our own of a similar ability.

 

....  having our cake, and eating it as well.

some people will always find ways to barrack for their own views... no matter what.  without need of question, or a mirror.

I am one of those paid killers, so don't upset me or I will blow your computer up.

I knew it was a lie as soon as they claimed they were playing golf. These days people of that age play on line games like Fortnite.

Wii golf?

The Bill for this charade would not come cheap. 

I am more interested in what Pavlich had to say, and so should the media

Im not sure what is a charade about it?

This is total media hysteria, they want a perp walk through the airport, good on the Eagles for looking after Gaff.

WCE's all over again DD. They have been poor in the ethics department since day 1. Just look at the way their supporters treated a certain Brownlow medalist, ignored drug takers and the way they cheered Gaff after the event. Low lights of the AFL.

Their supporters are feral, whoever has been to a WCE game in Perth will know what I'm talking about in regards to them booing everything.

I'm kinda on the fence on this one, and think you have a point.

However the AFL media can be a bunch of cretins and it wouldn't be much fun for the "regular folk" walking through the gate into that poo blizzard.

Nisbett for sure but give me a spell you’re looking to flay Gaff for the entire Eagles “history”?

Maybe have a spell from the thread for a bit, I suspect you’ll feel better for it. 

And just to be really clear, Gaff has done some brutal damage to an unsuspecting opponents faces and will go through the tribunal process and he should be suspended for a decent period of time. This over the top but it’s the current climate of outrage.

I see it as protecting the travelling public more than protecting Gaff.  There you are coming off the plane with she-who-should-not-be-with-you and suddenly you are on the TV news......

Sorry!!

Gaff has been part of this club for a long time. He is part of the fabric. 

I will decide when i make a comment, you don’t have to read it, that is your choice.

I still wouldn't like to come off a plane into that, but I am arguing at the margins a bit :)

I suspect it was something the airport/airline assisted in setting up. If I’m on that plan the last thing I want is a media scrum at the other end. 

This way the passengers get out at their destination without that madness. 

Solid defense from Gaff. Changing the conversation to the niggle off the ball. And as people have said on here, @McQueen - said he was aiming for chest but Brayshaw lowered his position...  Building the case for a light penalty. Still think 8wks.

You are probably right, i just don’t think he deserves protection.

Lowered his position in about .5 of a second. I am sure it will be the Defence, but it should be treated as very flimsy

 

Good to see Angus weigh in and say for the tribunal to just deal it with and then move on. Gaff will be suspended for remainder of the season IMO. Sounds like there will be no grudges from the Brayshaw’s and hopefully he comes to us next season. WC’s  defence of Gaff is just slobery sucking up in an attempt to keep him.

Why did he even lie? Surely the truth was going to come out in the wash. Bizarre.

I reckon something was said in regards to Hamish and Gaff, someone got it wrong or the CEO actually screwed up under pressure and did some 1+1 = 3

I don't think the intent was to lie, but incompetence... for sure!

  • NON-MFC: Round 06

    The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
